Azolla Collective – Asphalt Lovers
Performance unfolds in an asphalt landscape inhabited by hybrid bodies. An abandoned urban environment becomes a site of encounter, a temporary nest, where three beings navigate loneliness, frustration, and collapse while searching for forms of belonging. Through embodied perception, openness, and entangled relations with more-than-human entities, they seek ways to co-create, share and co-inhabit the world together.
Azolla Collective centers its work on creating performances and artistic interventions that emerge from urban landscapes. As the seemingly small aquatic fern Azolla, we are gently caring for other organisms while proposing moments of encounters and mutual listening. We cherish collaboration, nurturing connections across species and places. Artistic research, body practices and improvisation anchor our work, in engagement with the materiality of the sculptural processes. Azolla Collective was founded in 2025 through the collaboration of performers Lucie Vrbíková and Adina Voldrábová.

Infrastructures of Imagination
The exhibition explores how mythical and ritual narratives are reconfigured within an environment of data abstraction, distributed knowledge, and the aesthetic protocols of the present, and how digital culture shapes new forms of storytelling.
Michal Kalhous – Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory
The exhibition *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* presents a series of photographs created over the recent period. It is an experimental tool of synthesis and a search for a path to fulfillment. At the same time, it is a purposeful, captivating exploration of suddenness and their relationships. *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* is once again an attempt at a dialogue between inner experience and a higher, transcendent order.
FOTOGRAF Josef Sudek
The legendary Josef Sudek (1896–1976) is now regarded as one of the great figures of world photography. After his death, a substantial part of his artistic estate was donated by his sister Božena to the collections of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague. It comprises approximately 21,000 original prints and around 27,000 negatives.
